  Some of my configs I test with have CONFIG_A11Y_BRAILLE_CONSOLE set.
  When I started testing against v3.11-rc4 my console went bonkers. Using
  ktest to bisect the issue, it came down to:

  commit bbeddf52a "printk: move braille console support into separate
  braille.[ch] files"

  Looking into the patch I found the problem. It's with the return of
  braille_register_console(). As anything other than NULL is considered a
  failure.

  But for those of us that have CONFIG_A11Y_BRAILLE_CONSOLE set but do not
  define a "brl" or "brl=" on the command line, we still may want a
  console that those with sight can still use.

  Return NULL (success) if "brl" or "brl=" is not on the console line.

  Create files with prototypes and static inlines for braille support. Make
  braille_console functions return 1 on success.

  Corrected CONFIG_A11Y_BRAILLE_CONSOLE=n _braille_console_setup
  return value to NULL.
